There has been a rise in tool thefts from work vehicles, renovation sites, and construction areas.
We urge everyone to be extra cautious and take preventative measures to protect your valuable assets.
Here are some practical tips:
Lock it up: Ensure your vehicle or site is securely locked when unattended.
Out of sight, out of mind: Keep tools hidden. The less visible they are, the less likely they are to be stolen.
Invest in secure storage: A tool safe or lockbox can provide an extra layer of security.
Mark your tools: Engraving or marking your tools can deter thieves and aid in recovering stolen items.
In addition to these, when it comes to vehicle security:
Hide your valuables: Avoid leaving property on open display within your vehicle, including the boot.
Remove tools at night: If you or anyone you know stores work tools in their vehicles, please remove them at night. It might take some time, but it’s the most effective theft prevention method.
Upgrade your locks: Installing additional or stronger locks can deter thieves from attempting to break into a vehicle.
Stay alert, stay safe!
